I don't have an icon for it. Opening the drop down menu I get the options to:
Add this laucher to panel or
Add this launcher to menu or
Add entire drawer to panel or
Add entire menu to panel

Opening the thing doesn't get me your options either.

I just tried adding it to panel and the command choice is there but it seems to have fixed itself. It is in Properties as Type = Applcation rather than Application in Terminal.

I have no idea how it was fixed.

But many thanks anyway.

I would very much like to be nice. If this is not your day, I am sorry about that.
